Mavacamten is made for treating a kind of heart condition called obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It helps to calm down the heart so it doesn’t get too tight, which is really important for dealing with the heart condition. You can get it in capsule forms with strengths of 2.5, 5, 10, or 15 milligrams.
The doc usually starts with 5 milligrams a day. If it’s not working, they might change the dose up a bit. Each bottle has 30 capsules.
Mavacamten operates by inhibiting the activity of the cardiac myosin, a protein crucial for the generation of the force necessary for cardiac muscle contraction, thereby helping to alleviate symptoms of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
